All the May challenges are in full swing. Guess I'll search for a June one since this one is a bust.

Hi, I'm back again as well. Did great last week so I'm feeling motivated (for now!) The 2 friends I recently added are already dropping off so I'm looking for some more! Let's do this together. I'll send you a friend request.

I lost 30 pounds about 2 years ago and 20 have found their way back. I'm going to try for the 20 plus some. I'm back to logging everyday which is a big help. I make sure to have snacks that I can eat when I don't want to eat what my family has. I love the yogurt parfaits from McDonald's so when the family goes to Dairy…

Hi! I understand where you are. I lost 30 pounds about 2 years ago using MFP but 20 pounds are back. I've been starting for the last 3 months but I am determined for it to stick this time. I'm back to logging everyday which is a big help. I'll send you a friend request so we can do this together!

Hello, I am new for May and would like to join the challenge!

Keeping some type of sugary candy (twizzlers, spice drops, gum drops,skittles, starburst, etc) stashed in almost every nook and cranny. The all-sugar addiction was way too much. I had to put myself in rehab - low-carb rehab.

Thank you for both of those resources. What's funny is this one says to cut back on dairy and eliminate pork and those are the things I added when I went low-carb! I've fallen back in love with bacon and I'm not giving it up right now! Lol

I checked out that site,but my workouts are quite tame compared to what they do!

Those are my calories per day, not including what I burn from working out. I honestly didn't think working out 4 days a week for 40-45 min was much. I worked out more when I was counting calories because I find I just don't lose without the exercise (experiencing the slow down after 40). I'm using a pair of too-small jeans…

If I click my menu (3 horizontal lines, top left) it's under challenges.

How about taking a good nap in once too-tight jeans? That's a good feeling too!

There is a 100 day challenge in the group section. I think it closes tomorrow.

That is EXACTLY what happened. I let my guard down and within 18 months, I had gained back 20 pounds. I have to keep track and be aware if I'm going to make it stick.

Your story resonates with so many women. We gotta work on us sometimes!

I'm an afternoon grazer. I have to stay alert or I will easily eat 500 calories without even realizing it. Love swapping recipes. Sent you a request.

Congrats on the baby and the wedding! I'm on this journey to good health as well. I log daily and can always use motivation!

If you're not ready to fully commit, it's not going to matter if your diary is open or not. It's good that you're logging and now you can see where your trouble spots are. I eat most of my calories between 1-4 so I know to be careful about what I'm picking up or I will graze through 500-700 calories so fast! Get some…

You're in a good place! Log everything! I started back again after regaining 10 of the 30 I lost. I wish I didn't have to, but for now I do. If you're comfortable, open your diary. Accountability is a big part of this process. You can do this!

You can do it! So much motivation here. I sent you a friend request.

Yep! You have had one amazing week!

It's more like 3.0. I don't think they're brisk at all.

Losing is the easy part. Keeping it off is extremely hard! I lost 12 pounds in a month doing Extreme Fat Smash by Dr. Ian. Of course, it's all back but maybe if you're just doing it for a one-night thing, it could work!

I seriously need your motivation and ideas! Sent you a friend request.

150 pounds is ideal for a 5'11 inch male?? I am in trouble! lol

Come here at least once a day. Log a food, exercise or just see what other people are up to. Add some friends too because you can get a lot of motivation from others. Good luck!

I can lose the weight but cannot keep it off. Hoping to learn some new things this time around.

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm glad you got to spend those final says with your mom. I don't work outside of the home, but I don't know anyone else that does step aerobics and could use the motivation and accountability!

That is great! How long do you walk? I love to walk, but it doesn't seem to help me lose weight.

I'm back on it. My mac and cheese was soooo good. And the sweet potato pie wasn't bad either....I'm in trouble :(

PLEASE let me in! I really need some people in my life who are trying as hard as I am.
